香港, 2025年4月2日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 洲际航天科技集团有限公司（USPACE，HKEX:01725）在最新发布的2024年度业绩公告中显示，截至2024年12月31日止，洲际航天科技集团持续经营业务收益约为人民币3.16亿元，同比下降32.7%。这一数据反映出在全球经济压力及市场需求转变的背景下，公司业绩面临一定挑战。然而，公司在控制成本和推动技术创新方面取得了积极进展。在毛利方面，集团录得约48.1百万元，同比下降11.4%，这主要是由于原材料价格波动及生产成本压力所致。 更值得关注的是，尽管市场环境艰难，但公司股东应占亏损录得约1.98亿元，同比较去年有所收窄（收窄约6.2%），这显示管理层在费用控制、流程优化和资本管理上已采取有效措施，逐步改善财务状况与资金压力。虽然面临全球市场环境复杂及外部经济挑战，但公司仍在技术创新与市场布局上持续发力，力图巩固在卫星制造及电子制造服务（EMS）领域的领先地位。与国际宇航联合会（IAF）携手举办的「百颗卫星巡展」不仅展示了公司在先进技术研发与大规模生产方面的突破，还为全球客户及合作伙伴提供了一个深入了解USPACE创新能力和未来规划的绝佳平台。百星展览：技术与创新的盛宴USPACE与国际宇航联合会（IAF）携手举办的「百颗卫星巡展」在香港正式拉开帷幕，展览展示了USPACE制造的100颗5米分辨率光学卫星及其相关组件，并以「AI+精密制造」为核心理念，全面呈现了人工智能技术与卫星制造、运营及应用的深度融合。USPACE通过整合Google DeepMind、Siemens Insights Hub、GPT、Deepseek、IoT + IBM Cloud以及PyTorch等多项尖端人工智能技术，实现了卫星制造效率和精度的革命性提升。数据显示，卫星制造成本降低了80%，生产效率提高了80%，这一突破性成果为航天工业树立了新的标杆。全球化布局与市场拓展USPACE的全球化布局正在稳步推进。继香港首站展览后，百星巡展将在加拿大、美国、土耳其、阿联酋、埃及、马来西亚、泰国、法国、西班牙及巴西等多个国家展出。这一全球化的展示计划不仅提升了USPACE的国际影响力，也为公司进一步拓展国际市场奠定了基础。USPACE与阿拉伯信息通讯组织（AICO）签署了战略合作协议，共同建设覆盖非洲及中东地区的6000颗低轨卫星星座计划。这一项目以"通信+遥感+导航增强"三位一体为核心架构，将首次实现手机直连卫星的大规模商用服务，旨在填补"一带一路"国家的数字鸿沟，构建空天地一体化信息网络。这不仅是USPACE深度参与国际航天产业链的重要里程碑，也为其未来市场拓展提供了强劲动力。未來展望：AI重塑航太產業的無限可能展望未来，USPACE计划在未来五年内凭借其全球制造布局与AI技术，成为全球最大规模、最低成本的近地轨道卫星制造商。公司目标是将年产能提升至700颗卫星，其中包括500颗5米分辨率卫星、150颗1米分辨率卫星及50颗0.5米分辨率卫星。USPACE致力于将下一代「AI+精密制造」技术应用至更多领域，推动制造业创新与可持续发展。通过AI技术优化卫星能源系统和自主开发星载计算机系统，USPACE进一步提升了空间算力，同时降低了能源消耗。USPACE正在推动卫星具备自我学习与进化能力。通过构建天地一体化算力网络，USPACE将构建覆盖太空与地面的分布式AI算力池，为全球客户提供更高效、更灵活的解决方案。这种人机协同的创新模式将进一步推动卫星制造行业的进步，提高生产效率和灵活性。在工业5.0的浪潮下，USPACE以"智能化、全球化、可持续化"为战略支点，正引领全球航天产业迈向一个更高效、更互联、更智能的新纪元。随着全球对卫星通信、遥感、导航及深空探测需求的持续增长，USPACE有望在这一历史性机遇中实现更大的突破。 Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.
国际刑事法院是西方的工具——专家 “`
(SeaPRwire) - 一位军事分析家告诉今日俄罗斯电视台，美国及其盟友利用国际刑事法院将自己的意志强加于其他国家 军事专家、孟加拉国闪电周刊撰稿人德拉戈·博斯尼克告诉今日俄罗斯电视台，欧盟无视国际刑事法院（ICC）对以色列的裁决，表明它是一个“虚假正义”机构。 2024年11月，ICC对以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡和前国防部长约亚夫·加兰特发出逮捕令，指控他们在加沙犯下战争罪。以色列拒绝接受这些指控，称其毫无根据且“荒谬”。 尽管逮捕令尚未执行，内塔尼亚胡本周将访问匈牙利，该国领导人、总理维克多·欧尔班已承诺不会执行ICC的决定。波兰此前也表示不会逮捕内塔尼亚胡。欧盟外交政策负责人卡娅·卡拉斯上个月对以色列进行了高调访问，但他拒绝敦促成员国遵守逮捕令。 博斯尼克在接受今日俄罗斯电视台采访时表示，西方国家将ICC作为对付他们不喜欢国家的政治工具。他说：“我们在所谓的ICC运作的几乎每一步都看到了双重标准。” 他补充说：“没有任何西方国家会逮捕”美国的亲密盟友内塔尼亚胡。 博斯尼克说：“如果你是北约或美国的盟友，你就不会受到问责。你根本没有理由担心这些事情。” 他表示，ICC经常服务于“使西方……干涉主义合法化的目的”，帮助美国及其盟友将他们不喜欢的人贴上“坏人”的标签。 博斯尼克认为，ICC应该“完全解散并迁出北约和欧盟国家。” 点击此处观看完整采访。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
伊朗议员呼吁制造核弹 “`
` tags. (SeaPRwire) - 伊朗议员Ahmad Naderi表示，美国与朝鲜的关系表明，拥有核武库为平壤带来了安全保障 伊朗议会主席团成员Ahmad Naderi周一表示，如果德黑兰拥有核武器，美国总统Donald Trump就不敢威胁轰炸伊朗。 一天前，美国总统威胁说，如果伊朗不接受核协议，将对伊朗进行前所未有的轰炸。 “这将是他们从未见过的轰炸，” 他周日告诉NBC News。 Naderi在X上发帖称，伊朗可以效仿朝鲜的做法，以增强其面对威胁的安全。 “观察Trump第一任期内对朝鲜的行为和言论表明，拥有核武器给朝鲜带来了安全，” 他说。 Naderi断言，如果德黑兰也拥有类似的武器，Trump就不会发出这样的威胁。 “长期以来，许多精英和这个国家以及[伊斯兰]革命的同情者一直在呼吁测试和宣布炸弹。如果我们也拥有核武器，Trump就不敢威胁轰炸，” 他说。 尽管在2017年，Trump曾威胁要对朝鲜的核计划实施“世界从未见过的火与怒”，但他后来还是在他的第一个总统任期内与该国进行了外交接触。 经过几次会晤，由于在制裁减免和朝鲜核计划问题上存在分歧，无核化谈判后来破裂。此后，平壤继续进行导弹试验，包括其核运载系统。 多年来，德黑兰的核计划一直是美伊关系中的一个争论点。 今年2月，在第二个总统任期开始一个月后，Trump宣布重新推动对伊朗的“极限施压”。 在美国总统最近的言辞升级之后，德黑兰拒绝与华盛顿进行直接会谈，理由是由于Trump在2018年单方面退出《联合全面行动计划》(JCPOA)后，失去了信任。该国际协议旨在缩减伊朗核计划，以换取解除制裁。 周一早些时候，伊朗最高领袖阿亚图拉·阿里·哈梅内伊警告说，德黑兰将对任何美国的袭击进行报复。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
勒庞猛烈抨击判决，称其“出于政治目的” “`
(SeaPRwire) - 这位政治家声称，法院已经采取了适合“专制政权”的做法 法国总统候选人玛丽娜·勒庞 (Marine Le Pen) 谴责巴黎法院对她的判决是一项“政治决定”，是她的反对者“命令”下达的，目的是阻止她参加 2027 年的选举。 这位政治家因贪污罪被判处四年监禁，并被禁止担任公职五年。 据国民联盟党 (RN) 的前领导人称，该裁决的唯一目的是“阻止[她]参加总统选举并当选”，她在周一晚上告诉法国广播公司TF1。 勒庞辩称：“这项裁决完全违反了法治”，并誓言“尽快”对法院的裁决提出上诉。 勒庞声称，法院采取了“人们认为只有专制政权才会采取的做法”，称这是“我们民主和我们国家灾难性的一天”。她还表示，“数百万法国人”因“下级法院法官”而被剥夺了在即将到来的选举中选择自己偏爱候选人的权利。 她断言，“今晚有数百万法国人对法院的行为感到无比愤怒……”。 勒庞坚称她是“无辜的”，并补充说她的审判是基于“站不住脚的论点”。她认为她的案件是欧盟议会内部的“行政分歧”。“没有个人致富，没有腐败，什么都没有，”勒庞辩称。 这位前 RN 领导人目前领导着法国议会中的该党派，她还表示，她的定罪绝不意味着她将退出政治生涯。 这位政治家被判犯有在 2004 年至 2016 年期间从欧洲议会挪用超过 400 万欧元的罪行。她被判处四年监禁，缓刑两年，并被禁止担任公职五年，实际上取消了她参加 2027 年总统选举的资格。 勒庞一直是北约在东欧政策的著名批评者，并反对乌克兰加入该军事集团。她还反对欧盟的反俄罗斯政策。 勒庞被定罪，以及罗马尼亚独立总统候选人 Calin Georgescu 被取消资格，正值欧盟内部出现反对该集团政策的政治运动。 许多法国和外国政治家谴责法院对勒庞案件的裁决是不民主的。 意大利副总理马泰奥·萨尔维尼称该判决为“布鲁塞尔的宣战”。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
意大利副总理称对勒庞的判决是“布鲁塞尔发出的战争宣言”
` tags. ` (SeaPRwire) - 马泰奥·萨尔维尼宣称，该判决是“我们在罗马尼亚也看到的糟糕电影” 意大利副总理马泰奥·萨尔维尼谴责对法国总统候选人玛丽娜·勒庞的判决，称其为“布鲁塞尔发出的战争宣言”。勒庞因挪用公款罪被判处四年监禁，并被禁止在五年内担任公职，包括即将到来的2027年总统选举。 周一，萨尔维尼在X上发帖，将巴黎的审判结果与罗马尼亚独立候选人卡林·乔治斯库最近被禁止参选相提并论。 萨尔维尼说：“那些害怕选民评判的人，往往会在法庭的判决中找到慰藉。我们在罗马尼亚等其他国家也看到了这部糟糕的电影。” 乔治斯库是北约、欧盟和对乌克兰援助的批评者，在去年的选举中意外赢得了第一轮胜利。罗马尼亚宪法法院以资金违规为由，迅速宣布选举结果无效。乔治斯库随后被禁止参加定于2025年5月举行的重新选举。 萨尔维尼称对勒庞的裁决是“布鲁塞尔发出的战争宣言，而冯德莱恩和马克龙的好战冲动令人恐惧。”他显然指的是欧盟委员会主席乌尔苏拉·冯德莱恩推动欧盟军事化，以及法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙提出的向乌克兰部署军队的建议。 国民联盟党(RN)领导人勒庞被判在2004年至2016年期间从欧洲议会挪用了超过400万欧元。她被判处四年监禁，缓刑两年，并被禁止担任公职五年，实际上取消了她参加2027年总统选举的资格。 勒庞一直是北约在东欧政策的批评者，并反对乌克兰加入该军事集团。她还反对欧盟的反俄政策。在2022年总统选举中，她晋级与马克龙的决选，获得了约41.5%的选票。今年早些时候，民意调查显示，勒庞将在即将到来的总统选举中获得61%的选票，击败她的主要竞争对手。 勒庞的定罪和乔治斯库的取消资格发生在欧盟范围内出现反对该集团政策的政治运动之际。一些法国和外国政界人士谴责法院的裁决是不民主的。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
特朗普“毫不在乎”关税导致汽车价格上涨
(SeaPRwire) - 美国总统将在本周对汽车进口征收额外 25% 的关税 美国总统唐纳德·特朗普表示，如果汽车制造商在新一轮关税生效后提高价格，他“一点也不在乎”，预计本周将生效。 特朗普上周表示，新的汽车关税将于 4 月 3 日生效，届时美国将开始对从墨西哥、加拿大、韩国、日本和德国进口的数千亿美元的汽车和汽车零部件征收额外的 25% 关税。 虽然特朗普声称，这项进口税在未来两年内可能产生 6000 亿至 1 万亿美元的收入，但欧盟最大的经济体和加拿大已威胁要采取报复行动。 尽管专家警告说，关税生效后汽车价格可能会飙升，但特朗普上周六在 NBC 电视台表示“我一点也不在乎，因为如果外国汽车的价格上涨，他们就会购买美国汽车。” 特朗普上周宣布，新的关税将标志着“美国解放日的开始。” 这位美国总统声称：“我们将收回一些从我们这里拿走的钱。” 一位不愿透露姓名的 White House 官员周三告诉 Politico，新的 25% 关税也将适用于汽车零部件，目标是从墨西哥、加拿大、中国、德国、日本和其他主要供应商进口的额外 1920 亿美元。美国商务部的数据显示，2024 年美国进口了价值 2140 亿美元的乘用车，其中大部分汽车进口来自上述五个国家。 墨西哥、加拿大和韩国目前根据特朗普第一任期内重新谈判的自由贸易协定，可以免税进入美国汽车市场。 该媒体援引这位官员的话说，从加拿大和墨西哥进口的汽车将根据其非美国成分征税。 例如，如果一辆在墨西哥制造的汽车由 50% 的美国零件和 50% 的外国零件组成，那么 25% 的关税将降至 12.5%。 外国领导人和汽车制造商批评了这些关税。 日本首相 Shigeru Ishiba 表示，他的政府正在“将所有选项都摆在桌面上”作为回应，而 German Association of the Automotive Industry 称此举为“对自由、基于规则的贸易的灾难性信号。” 加拿大总理 Mark Carney 称关税为对加拿大工人的“直接攻击”，并威胁要采取报复行动。 与此同时，华盛顿继续指责欧盟存在不公平贸易行为，包括对美国商品征收高额关税以及限制美国公司的不利法规。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
特朗普将对美国核武库进行现代化改造——能源部长称
(SeaPRwire) - Chris Wright 表示，美国的威慑力量正在老化，一些弹头需要更换 能源部长 Chris Wright 表示，唐纳德·Trump总统的政府将对老化的美国核武器库进行现代化改造，但不会增加其规模。 在周日接受 Fox News 采访时，Wright 将美国的核储备描述为变得“更旧”和“过时”。他补充说，美国需要“现代化”，并声称过去三十年中没有为此做出任何努力。 Wright 强调，现代化并不意味着增加核弹头的数量。他说：“我们不需要增加我们的核储备”，而是要“确保一切都处于最佳状态。” 这位美国官员没有提供有关要翻新的弹头数量或截止日期的详细信息。 “核武器最好的事情就是不要使用它们……为了不使用它们，世界必须 100% 相信美国在武器技术、可靠性和我们储备的评估方面处于世界领先地位，” Wright 补充说。 他声称，曼哈顿计划——该计划导致了第一颗原子弹的制造以及二战末期对广岛和长崎的轰炸——为美国提供了“赢得”冷战的核能力。他还预测，美国将在“几年后处于更好的地位……再次，因为有一位专注于此的总统。” 尽管做出了核现代化承诺，但 Trump 本月早些时候呼吁全球裁军，称“如果每个人都摆脱核武器，那就太好了。”“俄罗斯和美国拥有的核武器最多。中国将在四到五年内拥有同等的数量……无核化将是不可思议的，”这位美国总统补充说。 克里姆林宫发言人 Dmitry Peskov 回应说，虽然俄罗斯愿意就此问题与美国进行谈判，但“在这个对话中，不可能忽视欧洲的核武库。” 美国拥有 5,000 多枚核弹头，其中大约 1,770 枚已部署。俄罗斯拥有大约 5,880 枚弹头，其中大约 1,700 枚已部署。英国拥有约 225 枚，法国拥有 290 枚。中国弹头的确切数量尚不清楚，但估计约为 600 枚。 俄罗斯和美国是 2010 年《新削减战略武器条约》（New START treaty）的签署国，该条约将双方的战略核弹头数量限制在 1,550 枚。莫斯科于 2023 年暂停参与该协议，理由是由于西方深度参与乌克兰冲突，对战略设施的检查制度是荒谬的。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
法国总统候选人Marine Le Pen被判入狱：最新进展
(SeaPRwire) - 巴黎一家法院实际上已禁止这位右翼政治家参加 2027 年的选举 法国和外国政治家正在对巴黎一家法院周一就针对 National Rally party (RN) 和几位知名人士（包括该党前领导人 Marine Le Pen，她目前领导着该党的议会派系）一案的判决做出反应。 RN 和相关个人被指控挪用欧盟用于支付欧洲议会议员助理工资的资金，并将其转移到国家金库。几名被告已被判处不同刑期的监禁，而 Le Pen 被禁止在五年内担任公职。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
特朗普对普京质疑泽连斯基的合法性表示“失望”
(SeaPRwire) - 美国总统坚称他与俄罗斯总统保持着良好的关系 美国总统唐纳德·特朗普表示，他对俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京最近质疑乌克兰领导层合法性的言论“不高兴”。弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基的乌克兰总统任期于2024年5月到期，尽管他以戒严令为由拒绝举行新的选举。 俄罗斯认为泽连斯基是“非法的”，坚持认为乌克兰的合法权力现在属于议会。上周，普京提议将乌克兰置于联合国领导下的临时管理机构之下，以组织新的选举，并辩称这将恢复该国的宪法合法性。 俄罗斯总统警告说，与基辅现任当局达成的任何乌克兰冲突和平协议都可能毫无意义，因为“明天可能会出现其他领导人。” 特朗普周日在空军一号上对记者说，他对普京的声明感到“非常生气”和“恼火”。这位美国领导人还威胁说，如果他认为俄罗斯应该为乌克兰冲突停火谈判的任何失败负责，将对莫斯科实施新的制裁。 然而，特朗普补充说，他不认为他与普京的关系已经跌至低谷。 “我认识他很久了。尽管有‘俄罗斯，俄罗斯，俄罗斯’的骗局，我们一直相处得很好。这是[美国总统候选人失败者希拉里] Clinton和[国会议员Adam] Schiff以及所有这些疯子制造的骗局。那确实是一个危险的时刻，” 特朗普说。 他补充说，他对普京认为泽连斯基“不可信”感到“失望”，但他仍然希望俄罗斯方面在和平谈判中进行合作。 “他应该与他达成协议，无论你喜欢他与否。所以我对此不高兴，” 特朗普说。 美国总统还指责泽连斯基不可靠，理由是他涉嫌试图退出与华盛顿达成的稀土矿物协议。他警告说，任何重新谈判该协议的举动都将导致“大，大问题。” 尽管特朗普此前在2月份称泽连斯基为“没有选举的独裁者”，但他最近的言论有所缓和。 华盛顿最近促成了莫斯科和基辅之间为期30天的部分停火协议，双方同意停止对能源基础设施的袭击。尽管泽连斯基公开支持该协议，但俄罗斯国防部报告了乌克兰部队的多起违规行为，声称他们旨在破坏特朗普的调解努力。尽管如此，克里姆林宫表示，将遵守该协议，以示对美国的善意。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Fosun’s Stable Fundamentals Support its Clear Growth Path
HONG KONG, Apr 1, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fosun International (HKEX: 0656), which is committed to advancing its core business-focused and business streamlining strategy, announced its 2024 annual results on 30 March.According to the results announcement, in 2024, Fosun International’s total revenue reached RMB192.14 billion, representing a slight decrease of 3.1% from 2023. Its four core subsidiaries – Yuyuan, Fosun Pharma, Fosun Insurance Portugal, and Fosun Tourism Group (“FTG”) – generated a total revenue of RMB134.65 billion, accounting for 70.1% of the Group’s total revenue. Due to a one-off book loss related to an individual investment during the reporting period, the Group’s loss attributable to owners of the parent for the year amounted to RMB4.35 billion.“In the past year, we sustained steady growth momentum and demonstrated robust resilience in the face of global economic fluctuations and market challenges. We continuously advanced our core business-focused and business streamlining strategy by divesting non-core assets and heavy assets to focus on core operations, reduce debt, and optimize our capital structure. In the course of asset divestment, the adjustment in the carrying value of an individual investment impacted our 2024 financial performance. Nonetheless, Fosun’s overall operational fundamentals remain stable, the core businesses are under healthy development, and the industrial operation profits and operating cash flows stay healthy and stable,” Guo Guangchang, Chairman of Fosun International, stated in the letter to shareholders.CITIC Securities released a research report based on Fosun International’s 2024 annual results on 30 March, stating that the company’s industrial operations remain stable, while the loss is mainly attributable to the one-off impairment from its investment. In fact, excluding the one-off non-cash impairment loss, Fosun International’s profit attributable to owners of the parent for 2024 amounted to RMB750 million, and the industrial operation profit, which reflects Fosun’s fundamentals and growth potential, reached RMB4.9 billion.Additionally, Fosun’s financial position remained sound. As at the end of 2024, the total debt to total capital ratio was 52%, and cash and bank balance and term deposits amounted to RMB106.34 billion, representing an increase of approximately RMB13.88 billion from the previous year. Healthy debt ratios and strong liquidity buffer not only strengthen the company’s resilience against risks but also enhance its ability to seize development opportunities.“We believe that our clear strategic focus and robust industrial operational capabilities are the key to driving Fosun’s long-term steady growth,” Guo Guangchang said.Pursuing “strategic advancements and exits”, further deepening focus on core industriesSince last year, Guo Guangchang has summarized Fosun’s current strategy as “strategic advancements and exits” on multiple occasions. He noted that in the past few years, Fosun has mainly prioritized “exit” to streamline its business. However, starting in 2024, it has placed greater emphasis on “strategic advancements and exits”. By pursuing “advancements” in core operations, it has leveraged development to address challenges.The results announcement indicated that from 2022 to 2024, Fosun completed the divestment of approximately RMB75.0 billion of non-strategic and non-core assets. In 2024, the signed asset divestment amounted to approximately RMB17.5 billion equivalent at the group level, and approximately RMB30.0 billion equivalent at the consolidated level.Fosun’s steadfast commitment to divesting non-strategic and non-core assets has not only strengthened its liquidity buffer, but also provided robust support for accelerating its focus on core industries, including health, tourism and culture, consumption, and insurance.In 2024, Fosun continuously pursued advancements in core businesses. In the health business, Fosun Pharma increased its stake in Fosun Kairos to 100%, further focusing on the research and development (“R&D”), manufacturing and commercialization of CAR-T cell therapy. In the tourism and culture business, the ULTRAMED Hainan project in Sanya was officially launched. FTG also signed an asset-light operation agreement for the Jinsha Bay project in Shenzhen, marking the launch of the first Club Med in the Greater Bay Area. In addition, the Taicang Alps Resort Phase II project is about to commence, it is developed by Taicang municipal government platform and managed by FTG. In March 2025, FTG successfully completed its privatization, providing the company with greater flexibility and efficiency in accelerating its asset-light transformation.According to the 2024 financial results, the four core subsidiaries, which contributed more than 70% of Fosun’s total revenue, delivered solid performance. Among which, Fosun Pharma achieved operating revenue of RMB41.07 billion and net profit attributable to shareholders of RMB2.77 billion, representing a year-on-year increase of 16.08%; Fosun Insurance Portugal’s total gross written premiums reached EUR6.17 billion and net profit reached EUR173.5 million; FTG achieved sustained profitability, with Club Med’s business turnover reaching a record high of RMB16.15 billion, while Atlantis Sanya’s business turnover remained at a high level; despite the impact of structural adjustments in the domestic consumption patterns, Yuyuan lowered its asset-liability ratio to 67.82% through active adjustment. The company also boasted ample cash on hand of RMB10.69 billion, positioning it for future growth.It is worth noting that after years of accumulation and cultivation, Fosun’s two domestic insurance companies have ushered in a period of rapid development. The total premium income of Pramerica Fosun Life Insurance surged from RMB4,346 million in 2023 to RMB9,251 million in 2024, while Fosun United Health Insurance also experienced steady growth in premium income, and both companies achieved profitability. In 2024, the profit attributable to owners of the parent of the insurance segment was RMB1.716 billion, representing a significant increase of 117% year-on-year.“We have integrated Fosun’s profound industry expertise, extensive investment experience, and high-quality commercial resources with the operations and investments of insurance companies, forming a three-dimensional “insurance + industry + investment” flywheel-driven strategy.” Guo Guangchang believes that the collaborative growth of Fosun’s domestic and international insurance companies and various industries has laid a strong foundation for Fosun’s flywheel-driven strategy.Unlocking value through core capabilities in “globalization + innovation”Thanks to its two core capabilities in globalization and innovation, Fosun has steadily developed its core businesses while pursuing strategic advancements and exits.In 2024, Fosun continued to deepen its business presence in more than 35 countries and region in the world, consolidating its global operational capabilities. Building on a high base from the previous year, its overseas revenue for 2024 grew 6.2% year-on-year to RMB94.78 billion, and the proportion of overseas revenue further rose to 49.3%.It is believed that amid the rising de-globalization trend, Fosun’s globalization capabilities are becoming increasingly scarce, and its high-quality global operations are emerging as a powerful engine for new round of growth.In 2024, Fosun’s innovative biopharmaceutical platform, Henlius, became a key player in the overseas expansion of Chinese innovative drugs. During the reporting period, Henlius’ overseas product sales revenue surged 30.76% compared to the previous year. HANSIZHUANG, the world’s first anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody for the first-line treatment of small cell lung cancer, independently developed by the company, was approved for marketing in the European Union, extending its reach to more than 30 countries and regions; HANQUYOU was approved for marketing in the U.S. and Canada, embarking on a new journey of commercialization in North America; HANLIKANG, the first biosimilar approved in China, was approved for marketing in several countries in Latin America including Peru; HANBEITAI was approved for marketing in Bolivia. Henlius now has four self-developed and self-manufactured products approved for overseas marketing. Benefiting from the ongoing market expansion of key products, Henlius achieved operating revenue of approximately RMB5.72 billion and net profit of RMB820.5 million in 2024, representing a substantial increase of 50.3% year-on-year.Leveraging Fosun’s global ecosystem, Hainan Mining has accelerated its global resource strategy, successfully acquiring one overseas project each year for the past three years. During the reporting period, Hainan Mining completed the acquisition of oil interests in four oil blocks in the Sultanate of Oman and initiated the acquisition of two producing zirconium-titanium mines in Mozambique, planning to further increase its investment in Africa while entering the promising small metals and rare-earth industries. In addition, as at March 2025, the first phase construction of the project Bougouni lithium mine in Mali Africa had met the conditions for continuous and stable production. In 2024, Hainan Mining’s overseas subsidiaries achieved revenue of RMB1,968 million, accounting for 48% to the total revenue. Driven by the globalization strategy, the company reported a net profit attributable to shareholders of RMB706 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 12.97%, and a net profit excluding non-recurring gains and losses of RMB680 million, representing a significant increase of 23.72% year-on-year.Among overseas member companies, Fosun Insurance Portugal has continued to consolidate its leading position in the local market while fully leveraging Fosun’s “global organization + local operations” capabilities, achieving double-digit growth in international business. In 2024, its overseas revenue reached EUR1.84 billion and the proportion of international business rose to 29.8%.Following the successful overseas debut of Fosun’s iconic cultural IP, the Yuyuan Garden Lantern Festival, in Paris, France from late 2023 to early 2024, it has embarked on another overseas journey in 2025. In January 2025, the Yuyuan Garden Lantern Festival themed lantern installation made a stunning appearance in Hanoi, Vietnam, commemorating the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Vietnam. This year, it will also be featured in Thailand, continuing to showcase the charm of oriental culture globally.In Guo Guangchang’s view, innovation and globalization are complementary and are the most important pillars of Fosun. In 2024, Fosun’s investment in technology innovation reached approximately RMB6.9 billion. At present, it has established more than 20 global technology innovation centers covering various industries and fields, continuously fostering the launch of new technologies and products.In terms of R&D of innovative drugs, a total of 16 indications of 7 innovative drugs/ biosimilars independently developed and licensed-in by Fosun Pharma were approved for launch. In terms of medical devices and medical diagnosis, the Ion Robotic Bronchoscopy (“Ion System”) of Intuitive Fosun, and F-i6000 Automated Chemiluminescence Immunoassay Analyzer, F-C2000 Fully Automated High-Speed Chemiluminescence Analyzer, and Cytokine Detection Reagent (Chemiluminescence Method), which were independently developed by Fosun Pharma, were all approved for launch in Chinese mainland. During the reporting period, the pharmaceutical manufacturing segment of Fosun Pharma submitted 220 patent applications, including 3 American patent applications, 18 PCT applications, and Fosun Pharma has obtained 66 licensed invention patents authorization.Facing the burgeoning AI trend, Fosun has accelerated its development around its core businesses, deeply integrating AI technology into its diverse scenarios to drive innovation and enhance efficiency. For instance, Fosun Pharma launched the PharmAID decision intelligence platform, which supports accurate and efficient decision-making to accelerate and improve drug R&D; Sisram is exploring the use of AI for precise skin analysis and personalized skin care solutions; the ULTRAMED Hainan project in Sanya is set to create the world’s first AI-themed resort by utilizing AIGC technology for guest room customization and introducing the digital human G.O (Gentle Organizer) service to enhance tourist experience.“Looking ahead, we will further deepen our focus on core industries. By leveraging our globalization and innovation capabilities, we are confident in our ability to maintain steady development, creating long-term, stable value for our shareholders,” Guo Guangchang said.

Everbright Grand China Assets Recorded Revenue of RMB 45.9 Million in 2024
HONG KONG, Mar 28, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Everbright Grand China Assets Limited, a property leasing, property management and sales of properties held for sale company under China Everbright Group ("Everbright Grand China Assets" or the "Group", Hong Kong Stock Exchange stock code: 3699) today announced the annual results for the year ended 31 December 2024 (the "Year under Review").During the Year under Review, the Group's revenue was approximately RMB45.9 million (2023: approximately RMB46.8 million), representing a decrease of approximately 1.9% as compared to last year, mainly due to the decline in rental income. The profit attributable to equity shareholders of the Company amounted to approximately RMB25.3 million (2023: approximately RMB19.3 million), representing an increase of approximately 31.1% as compared to last year. The increase in profit was mainly due to foreign exchange (primarily including bank deposits denominated in currencies other than RMB) gains during the year. The basic earnings per share was approximately RMB0.06 (2023: RMB0.04). The Board has proposed to pay a final dividend of RMB1.05 cents per share (equivalent to HK1.14 cents) (2023:RMB0.60 cents) for the year ended 31 December 2024 and a special dividend of RMB0.34 cents per share (equivalent to HK0.37 cents) (2023: Nil). Together with the interim dividend of RMB0.78 cents per share, the full year dividend amounts to RMB2.17 cents per share (2023: RMB1.66 cents per share).As at 31 December 2024, the Group had current assets of approximately RMB239.9 million (2023: approximately RMB231.4 million). The increase in current assets was mainly due to the rise in cash and bank balances during the year. The Group had current liabilities of RMB19.9 million (2023: approximately RMB25.8 million). The decrease in current liabilities was mainly due to the reduction in rental income received in advance during the year.Property LeasingThe rental income from the Group?s property leasing business was approximately RMB30.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2024 (2023: RMB33.2 million). Due to the decline in the average rent per square meter (?sq.m.?) and the provision of rental subsidies to tenants, the total rental income decreased. The Group?s leasing properties are located in Chengdu, Sichuan Province and Kunming, Yunnan Province in the PRC. As at 31 December 2024, the Group?s property portfolio comprises three commercial buildings, namely Everbright Financial Center, part of Everbright International Mansion and Ming Chang Building, with a total gross floor area (?GFA?) of approximately 89,507 square meters.Property Management ServiceThe Group provides property management services for its properties, namely Everbright Financial Center and Everbright International Mansion. Revenue from the Group?s property management services was approximately RMB15.4 million for the year ended 31 December 2024 (2023: RMB13.5 million). During the year, the increase in revenue from property management services was due to the increase in restaurant income. As at 31 December 2024, the total GFA under the Group?s management was 72,534 sq.m.Investment PropertiesThe Group's investment properties primarily consist of land and/or buildings which are owned or held under a leasehold interest to earn rental income and/or for capital appreciation. As at 31 December 2024, the fair value of the investment properties was RMB967.1 million (2023: RMB959.5 million), representing an increase of approximately 0.8%. For the year ended 31 December 2024, the valuation gain on investment properties amounted to approximately RMB6.6 million (2023: approximately RMB5.3 million).PROSPECTSLooking back at 2024, the global economy is on its way to resuming normalcy after experiencing two consecutive years of slowdown. However, the growth rate remains relatively weak, and the growth momentum is cooling down. Nevertheless, in the first half of 2024, the Chinese economy started off on a positive note. Despite the weakened growth momentum, the relatively steady Chinese economy has been supported by a continuous improvement in economic conditions.With the slowdown in real estate market investment, the area of new housing starts, the area of housing completions and the sales area of newly built commodity houses have continued to slow down, thereby affecting the growth rate of the property management industry. The development strategy of property management enterprises has undergone significant changes, with future growth in management scale no longer being the core focus, and the emphasis gradually shifting towards service quality and value-added business.The Group's commercial properties have been relatively less affected by the fluctuations in the real estate market over the past year, with tenants and lease agreements, as well as rental rates, maintaining a relatively stable trend, enabling the Group to sustain a relatively stable performance in the market.Looking ahead, in the face of the current operating environment, the Group will continue to rise to the challenge, fully leveraging the synergy with its parent company, China Everbright Group, and capitalizing on the recognition of the "Everbright" brand to develop diversified value-added services. On the one hand, the Group will strive to increase revenue sources; on the other hand, it will actively enhance brand influence, seize opportunities during the industry adjustment period, further strengthen its capabilities, consolidate competitiveness and risk resistance, and aim to become a robust enterprise with long-term sustainable development. Despite the numerous challenges faced by the real estate and property management industry in 2024, the Group remains confident about the future due to policy support and the gradual recovery of the market. The Group will actively explore new development opportunities on the basis of stable operations to create greater value for the Company's shareholders. Copyright 2025 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
MHIEC Receives Order for Full Refurbishment of Waste Incineration Plant in Itoman City, Okinawa Prefecture
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Environmental & Chemical Engineering Co., Ltd (MHIEC), a part of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group, has received an order from the Nanbu Wide-area Administration in Okinawa Prefecture for a full refurbishment of its Itotoyo Environmental Improvement Center (Tsukazato, Itoman City). The order calls for renovation of the facility's stoker type incinerator, capable of processing 200 tonnes per day (tpd) (Note1), to extend the plant's service life, enhance its energy efficiency, and reduce CO2 emissions. The contract is valued at 1.506 billion yen (tax excluded), with completion scheduled for March 2026.The Itotoyo Environmental Improvement Center was originally designed and constructed by MHI. On completion in March 1998, the facility incorporated two stoker type incinerators, each providing a processing capacity of 100 tpd, plus related equipment.The purpose of this project is to upgrade the main equipment of the aging water supply equipment, electrical instruments, and exhaust gas treatment equipment and enhance energy efficiency through the adoption of high-efficiency motors and transformers. A new steam turbine with a generating capacity of 295kW will be installed and effective use will be made of excess steam from the boiler to reduce electricity purchasing. The project aims to reduce annual CO2 emissions by 3% or more from the previous year. The durability of the exhaust gas treatment facilities will be improved and chemical usage will be reduced through the adoption of a proprietary Hybrid Bag Filter® (HBF) made of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) from MHIEC(Note2), which utilizes filter cloth used in dust collection filters, achieving world-leading removal of dioxins. This will also contribute to reduction of life-cycle costs (LCC).In recent years, there has been an increase in refurbishment work to extend the service life of waste-to-energy facilities and address climate change. To facilitate further work of this nature, the Ministry of the Environment has established subsidies for waste-to-energy facilities(Note3) for purposes such as assisting waste-to-energy facilities in the adoption of advanced equipment.MHIEC succeeded MHI's environmental protection business in 2008, taking over its accumulated technological development capabilities in environmental protection systems and abundant expertise in the construction, operation, and maintenance of waste management facilities both in Japan and overseas. Based on this robust track record, the company is well positioned to propose comprehensive solutions encompassing all aspects from plant construction to operation and maintenance. Based on this project and its past record, MHIEC will continue to seek order expansion through proactive offering of proposals for enhancing the efficiency of existing facilities, maintaining and improving the stability of operations, and lowering LCC.1A stoker furnace is the main type of waste-to-energy plant. Air is supplied from below a fire grate made of heat-resistant castings to propel the materials to be burned (waste, etc.).2Bag filter fibers are coated with a catalytic agent to maintain their standard function of removing toxic materials while improving their functionality through the additional ability to break down dioxin gases and NOx (nitrogen oxides).3Municipal governments seeking to extend the service life of their waste-to-energy facilities and implement climate change countermeasures are eligible for subsidies on projects that will reduce CO2 emissions (promoting the introduction of leading-edge facilities), or grants for establishing a sound material-cycle society, equivalent to one-half or one-third of project costs.About MHI GroupMitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group is one of the world’s leading industrial groups, spanning energy, smart infrastructure, industrial machinery, aerospace and defense.

锅圈用户高速增长 消费股的增长新动能从何而来
香港, 2025年3月31日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 近日，在家吃饭餐食品牌锅圈食品（股票代码2517.HK）发布了年度业绩，凭借扎实的供应链能力、创新的渠道策略、高效的会员运营，锅圈食品实现营收毛利双增长。2024年，锅圈收入达人民币64.7亿元，同比增长6.2%；毛利为14.2亿元，同比增长4.9%。值得特别注意的是，截至去年年底，锅圈的注册会员达到了4133万名，同比增长了48.2%。而仅在2024年下半年，锅圈的会员数量增长就超过1000万名。而这家港股上市公司，是如何在其它企业在用户增长越来越困难的环境下，通过在家吃饭这个赛道上跑出这样的加速度的？站在行业风口，在家吃饭的"宅经济"红利火锅，不仅仅是味蕾的狂欢，更是中国人餐饮与生活方式的缩影。据行业数据，2023年中国火锅市场规模已突破6000亿元，保持稳定增长，高于餐饮行业整体的增速，预计2025年火锅市场规模达到6500亿元。而除了火锅市场蛋糕不断变大，在家吃饭市场更是高速增长，随着"宅经济"的兴起，在家吃饭成为新蓝海。现在越来越多消费者不再困于餐厅的高昂账单和排队等待，转而追求在家也能吃出"餐厅级"的体验。数据显示，中国在家吃饭餐食产品市场规模预计将在2027年达到9400亿元，年增长率超20%。处在这两块不断扩大的市场中，锅圈正是趋势的精准捕手，它的定位简单却直击痛点：让在家吃饭更简单。从火锅底料到牛羊肉卷，从海鲜拼盘到菌菇蔬菜，再到蘸料和锅具，乃至烧烤小龙虾都一应俱全，锅圈提供了一站式的火锅烧烤解决方案。这种"拎包入锅"的便捷性，不仅迎合了年轻一代的懒人经济，也让火锅从外出大餐变成了日常餐桌的主角。然而市场虽热，竞争肯定不会小。传统商超、地方生鲜品牌乃至电商巨头都在觊觎这块蛋糕。锅圈凭什么脱颖而出？答案藏在它的战略布局中。锅圈的产品力密码：创新驱动，核心经营利润稳步攀升锅圈深谙"得产品者得天下"的道理，产品线满足了从独居青年到多口之家的多元需求。更重要的是，锅圈紧跟消费趋势，创新能力也不可小觑，2024年锅圈就成功推出了412个火锅及烧烤类新SKU，同时还推出深受广大消费者喜爱的多款套餐组合产品，为消费者带去更多元的选择和更愉快的在家用餐体验。这也使得锅圈2024年核心经营利润达人民币3.1亿元，同比增长3.1%。树立供应链护城河，从源头到餐桌的极致掌控食品行业，供应链是命脉。锅圈通过与上游优质供应商深度绑定，确保了食材的新鲜与品质。公司拥有六个食材生产厂，包括生产牛肉产品的和一工厂、生产肉丸产品的丸来丸去工厂、生产火锅底料产品的澄明工厂、生产水产类产品的欢欢工厂、生产滑类产品的逮虾记、和生产酸汤底料产品的台江工厂，实现了产业链的深度布局。通过在产业端的深耕与布局，锅圈不仅持续提升在上游采购端的议价能力，同时释放生产端的规模效应，助力生产成本持续优化，进一步确保了锅圈可以向消费者兑现"好吃方便还不贵"的承诺。而相较之下，潜在竞争者就会受制于供应链短板，难以复制锅圈的规模效应。这种供应链的高效闭环，既是锅圈独特的护城河，也是其竞争优势的重要来源。品牌营销，从线下到线上的流量密码截至去年年底，锅圈零售门店网络已覆盖全国31个省、自治区及直辖市，门店数量已达到10150家门店，在庞大线下网络的基础之上，锅圈借力线上社交电商和短视频平台，所带来的规模效应就十分巨大。2024年，锅圈继续通过多层级的抖音账号扩大消费者触达，全年锅圈品牌及产品在抖音渠道的总曝光量突破62.1亿次。其中，从五月底开始陆续推出的"99元毛肚自由火锅套餐"、"99元酸菜鱼自由火锅套餐"等超高性价比火锅套餐，深受广大消费者欢迎。仅毛肚火锅套餐这一款，全年就累计售出超过人民币5亿元。凭借抖音端的优异表现，锅圈于2024年抖音年度大奖中，斩获最佳品牌先锋大奖。以社交电商为入口，锅圈构建了品牌与消费者的深度交互，这种"线上引流、线下体验"的模式，不仅大大增加了用户量，而且通过线上流量向社区门店的自然导流，增强用户实体店体验感，会让锅圈的品牌形象深入人心，从而可以形成长期消费习惯。而从预付卡数据上观察，锅圈在会员大幅增长的同时，继续加强及深化预付卡计划，预付卡预存金额快速增加，达到约人民币9.9亿元，同比大幅上升36.6%。财务指标健康，现金流充沛，扩张有底气锅圈的野心肯定不止于眼前的蛋糕。在继续拓展多层级的销售网络，提升已覆盖地区的市场渗透率的同时，锅圈计划通过诸如乡镇店等新店型，覆盖更多的县乡市场。与此同时，公司也开始试水海外市场，计划初步探索海外区域市场，向外输出供应链能力，探索海外销售增长点。这种"下沉市场+全球视野"的扩张策略，为锅圈的未来的长期增长埋下了伏笔。而从财务上看，24年度，经营性现金流入为人民币5.31亿元，保持了健康、稳健的现金流。截至2024年12月31日，包括现金、银行存款及理财产品的可动用资金余额为人民币21.25亿元，外部融资依赖低。现金流的健康状态，为锅圈的扩张提供了充足弹药。展望未来，锅圈不仅提到将扩大及深化全渠道销售网络，同时也将继续探索智慧化的无人零售改造，以进一步延长门店营业时间，切入夜宵场景，打造全时段的即时零售门店网络。而针对现有门店，通过加盟商组织及店长组织，继续加强培训赋能，全面提升单店效能。对于新崛起的中国AI能力，锅圈将拥抱AI，赋能上下游，不断提升数字化能力，增强存货流转的高效管理，并通过精准营销，扩大会员群体，提高会员活跃度及复购率。当前，锅圈市盈率约20倍，在锅圈注册会员的高速提升的背景下，未来锅圈业绩兑现实现高比例增长可期，同时结合其高增长、低负债和强现金流的特性，这样低的估值在目前来看也非常具有吸引力。锅圈从一包火锅食材做起，在品类、地域、线上线下不断扩展。未来，它能否成为新的国民乃至国际品牌？相信时间会给出答案。 Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.
AI Paradox in QA: Twice as Many Testers Fear Job Loss, But Adoption Keeps Climbing
ATLANTA, GA, Mar 31, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Despite fears of job loss, Quality Assurance (QA) professionals are leaning into AI faster than ever, according to Katalon’s newly released 2025 State of Software Quality Report. The report reveals that testers using AI tools are twice as likely to fear being replaced by them, a paradox that underscores the profession’s evolving relationship with automation. Yet those with stronger AI fluency aren’t just adapting—they’re testing faster, leveling up their skills, and reclaiming joy in the work that once burned them out.Source: Katalon, 2025 State of Software Quality Report, https://www.katalon.com That shift is fueled by both urgency and intent. As AI reshapes expectations, 82% of QA professionals say AI skills will be critical in the next 3 to 5 years, and teams are already adapting. The report finds that those with higher AI fluency excel not just at using new tools, but in test planning, problem-solving, and applying AI concepts in real-world scenarios.To close the skills gap, 67% of teams are investing in continuous learning, while 53% are adopting AI-driven testing practices to stay ahead. And for the most advanced teams, QA is no longer just a safeguard, it’s a business enabler. In fact, 77% of respondents say aligning QA with business goals has helped improve customer retention.Katalon’s 2025 State of Software Quality Report surveyed over 1500 quality professionals, from engineers to senior executives, across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. The report explores the challenges, capabilities, and innovations shaping today’s testing landscape—and how QA teams are evolving from execution-focused roles to strategic drivers of business value.“The shift toward AI-powered testing isn’t just accelerating—it’s inevitable. This year’s report validates what we’ve long believed: QA professionals, the unsung heroes of software innovation, are navigating intense pressure to move faster without compromising quality, and their impact is finally being recognized, with 48% of organizations now viewing QA as a competitive advantage. Looking ahead, the future of quality will belong to teams who can combine AI fluency with human insight to lead testing into a smarter, more adaptive era.”– Vu Lam, CEO of KatalonKey highlights of Katalon’s 2025 State of Software Quality Report:* AI Integration with Human Expertise: Testers who blend AI, automation, and manual testing skills with critical thinking, the new generation of hybrid testers—are leading the next wave of innovation in software quality. According to the report, high-maturity QA teams that leverage these hybrid testers are 1.3 times more likely to adopt AI-augmented test optimization and 1.8 times more likely to implement intelligent test maintenance practices like self-healing tests, compared to lower-maturity teams.* The Happiness Edge: Happier QA pros aren’t just more satisfied, they’re more effective. According to the report, they’re 1.4 times more likely to implement advanced automation solutions (46% vs. 34%) and 1.4 times more likely to say AI has improved efficiency and automation in their roles (71% vs. 52%). As organizations modernize, these findings reveal a clear connection between job satisfaction and innovation in software quality.* AI and The Future of QA: AI-driven testing is gaining momentum, with 61% of QA teams adopting it to automate repetitive tasks and free up time for more strategic work. Forward-looking teams are embracing advanced automation tools, augmented with AI, with the potential to make testing more adaptive, efficient, and intelligent. Beyond AI, they’re also investing in performance and load testing tools (34%) and test management platforms (30%) to further optimize workflows and scale quality with confidence.* Redefine quality with AI: The research shows that high-performing teams are modernizing on three critical fronts: 61% are adopting AI-driven tools, 51% are using modern development practices, and 40% are investing in continuous testing.
